Over on yahoo!life, there's a story about a discovery in an old abandoned silver mine in a ghost town in California. The ghost town is called "Cerro Gordo". Brent Underwood is living there and working to restore it to its past glory. His Youtube channel "Ghost Town Living" documents his progress over the last 18 months. Recently, he was exploring the mine and found some 100 year old Levi's, which believe it or not, can be very valuable!
Brent Underwood, a YouTuber “living in an abandoned ghost town, trying to bring it back to life,” loves to delve into the past. On his channel, Ghost Town Living, he details his attempts at making the abandoned ghost town, Cerro Gordo, habitable again. According to Underwood, Cerro Gordo was “established in 1865 and went on the be the most prosperous silver mine in California’s history.” Once the boom of silver ran out, the inhabitants of the town abandoned it. But not without leaving behind salient pieces of history. In one of his recent trips into the mine at Cerro Gordo, which we first saw on Laughing Squid, Underwood discovered a treasure he’d been hunting for 18 months. This treasure: a pair of century-old Levi’s.
